I asked:

Ian:

Sweet Jesus! Now asking a person questions relating to the
subject of the newsgroup is a crime?
>You have taken him to task just because he doesn't
>agree with everything you say.
I took him to task because I didn't agree with what *he*
said. I'm not allowed?
>Well I don't either.
I care?
>And there are many people in the world who don't as wwell.
I'm positively crushed.
>Are you going to use the
>same dead agent tactics that you used on Any on me and anyone else
>who doesn't agree with you ?
Ian, I don't know you from Adam. I don't recall anything you
have posted to ars. What makes you think I care about the
opinions of people I don't know and respect?
>I am supporting you in your struggle against the scieno's in a
>general sense, but I will not suppport you in your attacks on
>someone who's only fault is that he doesn't react favourably in a
>legal assesment of your actions and Arnies actions.
Support who and what you want.
>Look at what you have written and read it and think how like
>a petulant child you and Henry have been sounding like.
I asked some pertinent questions of someone acting like an
expert on the subject of this newsgroup.
>Ian
That's it!
These kind of ugly attacks on me have finally pushed me past
the point of caring whether you wogs *ever* get the real story
about the cult.
I can see that my efforts are all wasted on people who would
rather berate me for my well-earned opinions, and make
unwarranted comparisions between me and the criminal mind-
control cult, than rescue the children and other poor souls
who are and will be lost in the cult.
And I had the hope of thinking I was doing something good for
society. I can see that you people are just not worth the
effort. How many other people have put themselves and their
lives on the line to warn the public like I have?
It doesn't matter. None of it matters to me anymore. When I
wake up and find this kind of ugliness directed at me I just
think "Why fucking bother?".
I'm leaving. And I'm not *ever* coming back. This will be my
last post to ars. I have obviously attempted to help people
who are incapable of appreciating my knowledge and what I am
sacrificing to bring it to them.
You, Ian, have been the straw. You have convinced me that my
costly labor has been in vain. I will no longer share my
vast knowledge. You will no longer be able to criticize my
expertise or pick at my writing style. Pick, pick, pick is
all I get here, just like in the cult. Nothing I do is ever
good enough.
I hope you're happy now.
